I been trying to silence my self critisism by snapping a rubber band on my arm whanever my mind gets to negative to stop my automatic negative chatter.

It works pretty well , but one thing that I thought about is that if you could strap some kind of braclet who gives you a ligth electric shock ( or something else thats a bit painful but not to painful) every two second or so and wear it during the day.


Has someone done this ? Is there some way to practicaly do this?

Guard your thoughts.

Lessen your time watching the news.

Surround yourself with positive people.

Practice positive affirmation before you start your day.

Make use of the power of subliminal messages.

These things might help in eradicating negative thoughts from our mind.

I recently heard a story about a temple in Asia where several times, a bell is rung and everyone in the temple immediately stops what they're doing to reflect.

Perhaps that sort of thing would work in a modern setting as well--like getting an alarm for your phone, perhaps just a vibration every few hours which you can commit to. Take two minutes or so and just reflect on your thought patterns and how to improve them.

What do you think?
